Went vegetarian and go shopping on foot or bike

It's much more fun because I often bump into someone to chat to on the way! Because we now mostly buy seasonal fruit and veg for just a few days ahead we have reduced emissions from food waste by not buying too much at a time.

Think about your transport needs
Friday, January 03, 2020
I'm pledging to research how to drive to reduce my carbon emissions. I try to avoid using the car as much as possible. I prefer to walk or cycle for short journeys (helps with my fitness) and take public transport for longer ones (less stressful than driving). When I do need to use the car I want to learn how to drive energy efficiently.

Let the train take the strain
Thursday, January 02, 2020
I have already done 8 of these things but will research driving in a greener way. I do home visits in Leeds which means I am unable to get round my client base on public transport. I pledge to reduce my airmiles by visiting family using the train system where possible.
